What reading level is How to Make Rugs book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the filling is wide and soft, and well pushedback between each throw of the shuttle, it will bunch up between thewarp threads like a string of beads, and in a dark warp and lightfilling a rim of coloured shadow seems to show around each littleprominence. Such rugs are more elastic to the tread than aneven-threaded one, and on the whole may be considered a very desirablevariation.
It is well for the weaver to remember that every successful experimentputs the manufacture on a higher plane of d...evelopment and makes itmore valuable as a family industry.
CHAPTER IV.
INGRAIN CARPET RUGS.
Undoubtedly the most useful--and from a utilitarian point of view themost perfect--rag rug is made from worn ingrain carpet, especially ifit is of the honest all-wool kind, and not the modern mixture ofcotton and wool. There are places in the textile world where a mixtureof cotton and wool is highly advantageous, but in ingrain carpeting, where the sympathetic fibre of the wool holds fast to its adoptedcolour, and the less tenacious cotton allows it to drift easily away, the result is a rusty grayness of colour which shames the wholefabric.
